"WASHINGTON1, Dee. 20. The immi
gration committee's bill providing for
the deportation of all aliens affiliated
with anarchistic organizations was
passed today by the house. The vote
was unanimous.
Investigation by the foreign rela
tions committee into the activities of
Russian propagandists in this country
was ordered late today by the senate,
which. adopted a resolution by Senator
Kenyon, republican of Iowa, provid
ing for such an inquiry.
Urging passage of the bill to de
port alien members advocating over
throw of the government. Represen
tative Johnson, republican of Wash
ington, chairman of the house immi
gration committee, declared In the
house that all foreigners coming to
the United States, "in the future must
come only on probation." His state
ment indicated that later an effort
would he made to pass legislation for
the probationary entry of foreigners.
Unruly Uinti Mast Co.
"The citizens of the United States
are through with being told by alien
revolutionists, communists and an
archists who are within our borders
by our courtesy and by our grace,
how to run our government," declared
Mr. Johnson. "Free press in the
United States Is ours, not theirs: free
speech is ours, not theirs; and they
have gone just as far as we can let
them go toward ruining our most
precious rights. They have been
guests in our house. They have mis
behaved most woefully. They are
welcome no longer and they must go.
And those who come from foreign
shores in the future must come only
on probation."
Explaining the bill. Mr. Johnson
said that it enlarges the deportation
causes to include aliens who print,
circulate, edit, display or distribute
vicious literature, who are members
of organizations that Issue revolu
tionary publications, or 'those who
financially aid such propaganda. He
predicted that a bill penalizing Amer
ican born persons who commit simi
lar acts would soon be presented to
- the house by its Judiciary committee.
Publications Are Shows.

The shooting of four members of
the American Legion at Centralis,
Wash, on Armistice day, Mr. Johnson
charged, was a "conspiracy" among
the I. W. W.. who, under the bill,
"would quickly have been on their
way overseas." In this case, he as

to give the government an opportu- 1

The brotherhood. officers argue that
the battle against the high cost of
living has been a failure and that
the only way to meet It is with wage
increases. These demands will pre

any with whieh congress and the

Mrs. Slay Ellis Joans.
SALEM, Or., Dec. 20. (Spe
cial.) In the death of Mrs.
Mary Ellis Johns, wife of Jus
tice Johns, of the Oregon su
preme court, which occurred
here December 2, this commu
nity feels a personal loss. To
her friends Mrs. Johns was
known as one who lived not
for herself, but for others, and
whose Influence upon many of
the activities of the state will
long be felt.
J Mrs. Johns came to Oregon
as a girl, and 25 years of her
I -life were spent in Baker. Later,
J In Portland and finally In Sa-
lem, she was a social and Intel-
f lectual leader. In study clubs
J along various lines she won
t recognition for exceptional abil-
J ity and In dramatic interpreta- ,
f tlons, particularly of Shake
speare, ane acmevea oiauiiuLnni. .
When the war came to which
she sent one or ner eons Mrs.
Johns set herself cheerfully to
the task of promoting liberty
loan activities and the various
other war work that developed.
To her the interests of the na
tion, and of Oregon in particu
lar, were always close, and
among her latest activities were
her efforts in behalf of the fund
for erection of the women's

other radicals, will leave here early
tomorrow. A thick veil of official
secrecy was thrown about the prep
arations for departure, and all passes
to the Brooklyn pier, where the ship
is docked, were canceled.
The Buford, which prior to 1M.
when she was purchased for use as
a transport, was the British steamer
Mississippi, has been stocked with
stores and provisions sufficent to last
500 persons 60 days. The destination
of the ship 1s not known even to the
captain. His sailing orders will be
handed to him sealed to be opened It
hours away from port.
Guards Placed n Snip.
The normal crew of 126 men, in
cluding officers, has beem Increased
by enlisted men to serve as guards
and other precautions have been taken
to prevent any possible trouble.
The Buford Is a slow ship and the
time it will take her to reach a port
where her passengers can be disem
barked Is problematical. In addition
to the slow running time of the ves
sel, there must be taken into consider
ation possible delays from winter
storms and frozen seas in the district
into which she will sail, for the rad
icals have been promised they will be
sent to red Russia.
The number of reds at Ellis island
has been increased during the day
by the arrival of handcuffed and well
guarded delegations totalling about
150, from Pittsburg. Philadelphia, the
Cleveland district and Hartford, Conn.

Miss Goldman. Dora Lipman and

for Miss Bernstein, today asked At

to begin a prison sentence of 20 years
